Ever since Tang Xiaowan asked about Little Qu’er, Li Zishen’s gaze hadn’t left Leng Lingxiao.
He also really wanted to know, What was the truth?
If the music had been composed by Leng Lingxiao, then he’d need to find a music teacher to catch up on so lessons in his spare ti, but if it hadn’t, then he’d have to put aside his male pride, learn to be shaless...
Forget it, let’s just go with the flow!
He is him, I am , and we’re not even in the sa league; Xiao Wan couldn’t possibly fancy him.
However, Leng Lingxiao simply smiled indifferently, "I can’t rember clearly, after all, you could sing it when you were very young; maybe you taught it to , or... maybe I saw it sowhere?"
"Oh, so that’s how it is."
Tang Xiaowan nodded with disappointnt and continued walking forward.
Watching from the side, Li Zishen felt the pain in his heart, and even for a mont, he wished that the music had been written by Leng Lingxiao, perhaps then his Little Angel wouldn’t be so upset.
"What’s wrong, Tangtang, feeling unhappy?
"No."
"Here, have one, your favorite from when you were little, forget it, make it an exception today, two it is."
In the midst of speaking, Leng Lingxiao took out an exquisitely small iron box, which contained tiny pieces of Bingtang, about seventeen or eighteen.
Tang Xiaowan shook her head, indicating no, but her hand involuntarily reached out.
"Um, so sweet, it tastes like..."
"This is a specialty developed by yours truly; it’s definitely sweeter than those in the kitchen, hahaha."
Tang Xiaowan didn’t understand what Leng Lingxiao was talking about, but the Bingtang did indeed taste different from what was in the kitchen, with a faint fragrance and a slower lting speed.
She liked it, so she took another piece.
Li Zishen: "?"
Playing the childhood emotion card again?
Li Zishen tried hard to control his bad mood, preventing it from erupting.
He still rembered the matter of the early morning money transfer.
In this short span of ti, it was Little Qu’er, now it’s Bingtang, is he trying to provoke ?
So pedestrian, showing off love; anyone can do that!
So, Li Zishen reached into his pocket with a large hand, and the wooden carving was taken out.
Li Zishen raised an eyebrow and said, "Xiao Wan, thank you for asking ijuan to deliver this to Li Garden, it was quite so trouble, I really like it."
Tang Xiaowan: "?"
"Oh, it’s nothing, as long as you received it."
Leng Lingxiao: "..."
Li Zishen’s proud look seed to declare to the world that this was hand-carved by Xiao Wan herself, modeled after his likeness.
Cool, right? Jealous, aren’t you? You don’t have one, do you?
Leng Lingxiao just frowned at a glance.
Truly infuriated, he felt like snatching it away and throwing it into the trash.
...
A few minutes later, they reached the small pond.
Actually, halfway there, Tang Xiaowan had already started to back off, no longer wishing to look for any jewelry box or Ruby.
What would it matter if she found it?
Both Leng Lingxiao and Li Zishen had given her a set of jewelry, and they were the sa design, but she ended up keeping Leng Lingxiao’s and discarding Li Zishen’s.
At that ti, did I choose Huahua?
Was he the one I liked?
But then why did I send my docunts to Li Zishen, as if we were about to get a certificate, and those joint photos, it was as if we had been to so many places.
Could it be that I fell in love with two people simultaneously?
Impossible, absolutely impossible, there must be so misunderstanding here, yes, a misunderstanding!
Tang Xiaowan kept asking herself over and over in her heart, her head felt like it was about to explode, and she couldn’t co up with a reason.
"Finally here, it doesn’t look big, but it’s quite a walk," said Leng Lingxiao with a smile.
"It’s not small!" Li Zishen retorted.
"Oh, it’s not small compared to Li Garden."
In fact, Li Garden is quite large, twice the size of i Garden, but Leng Lingxiao just had to say it like that for a sense of satisfaction.
Li Zishen naturally understood.
All n know what they care about and despise, their hearts are clear as crystal.
"Mr. Leng is too kind, Li Garden really isn’t big. Xiao Wan was quite put out living there before, only able to fish and grow vegetables, terribly boring. Maybe I’ll just tear down that patch of dicinal herbs... and expand a bit."
"I think that’s a good idea, let’s wait and see."
"Great, once it’s done, I must ask Mr. Leng to honor us with his presence for a few drinks."
"No problem, haha."
Tang Xiaowan: "..."
Are they at it again?
This is killing , more womanish than won!
"Hey, the water’s gotten deeper. Wonder if there are enough water caltrops down there to fill a basket?" Leng Lingxiao suddenly pointed towards the small pond.
"Just pick whatever you can," Li Zishen replied as he took off his watch.
"How about another day? I forgot to prepare earlier, you’ll get so dirty just jumping in!" Tang Xiaowan took the opportunity to shake her head dismissively.
"No worries, I’ve got you covered," Li Zishen quickly interjected.
Tang Xiaowan glanced at Li Zishen’s custom-made shirt, trousers, and the limited-edition leather shoes on his feet, and her heart drumd with worry.
Would he beco a mud monkey coming out?
I have no spare clothes to lend you, and I’d have to go buy so. Such a hassle!
"Miss, miss..."
A man’s voice called out.
Approaching quickly were four individuals dressed in leather jumpsuits, each with an oversized wooden basin on their head, appearing quite comical.
"Your people?" Tang Xiaowan couldn’t help but chuckle as she turned to look at Leng Lingxiao next to her.
"Not mine, they’re yours."
"Mine?"
As the people got closer, Tang Xiaowan could finally tell that they were indeed from i Garden.
"They co every year to gather the water caltrops from the pond. You at i Garden really have an abundance of talents, everything one could need."
"Every year? You know so well?"
"Of course, this place is like a second ho to , can’t get any more familiar."
Tang Xiaowan suddenly lost her smile and moved closer to Leng Lingxiao, almost pressing up against him: "You’ve commandeered it already, haven’t you?"
Her eyes were sharp as knives, but her voice soft and sweet.
"What?" Leng Lingxiao raised an eyebrow.
"After harvesting, take it to the kitchen. I’m a bit tired, I’ll go ahead."
Leng Lingxiao: "..."
Damn, that didn’t go as planned!
Is Tangtang angry?
anwhile, Li Zishen quickly strode forward, blocking Tang Xiaowan’s path: "What’s wrong, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, just a little sleepy."
"I was thinking, after a while..." Li Zishen glanced at the people who had already gone down to the pond, his gaze intense, "Xiao Wan, tonight, may I..."
"Your room is still there, unchanged," Tang Xiaowan suddenly interrupted Li Zishen, and then gestured towards the front door, "Let them co in too. i Garden may not be as big as Li Garden, but we still have spare rooms to accommodate."
Li Zishen quickly nodded: "Okay, go rest up, and I’ll watch over here for a bit."
"Alright then, I’ll just..."
"Hey, what are you two talking about?" Leng Lingxiao ca over with a smile and interrupted, deliberately throwing a flirty wink at Tang Xiaowan.
"No dinner until you’ve picked them all!"
Tang Xiaowan glowered back annoyedly, left those words behind, and strode off, the speed of her steps as if she had wings ready to take flight.
Li Zishen tucked one hand in his pocket, his lips twitching faintly.
